About our China Practice

Our China Practice provides Corporate, Intellectual Property, and Tax expertise, and includes structuring and financing of China-based businesses, cross-border mergers, acquisitions, and the representation of U.S. companies investing in and doing business in China. Our attorneys understand the business and legal aspects of U.S.-China transactions in Internet, technology, and life sciences businesses.
